Box Score
WORCESTER, MA – Assumption closed on a 14-4 run to defeat The College of Saint Rose 63-58 this evening at Laska Gym in a
Northeast-10 Conference encounter. The contest experienced nine lead changes and seven ties.

Dominykas Milka paced Saint Rose (12-12/9-11 NE-10) with game-highs of 23 points and eight rebounds. A pair of freshmen, forward
Tyler Sayre and guard
Chris Dorgler, finished with 10 points apiece.
Three players factored into double-figure scoring for the Greyhounds (18-6/15-5) as senior forward Tim Beinert finished with 18 points. Senior forward Ronson Quick and graduate student Kevin Donahue contributed 15 and 14 points respectively. Meanwhile, senior guard Ryan Rozsnaki dished out 11 of the Greyhound's 19 assists.
Assumption closed the game on a 6-0 run in the final minute as Saint Rose was unable to convert in the closing stages.
